The record books will show they were 'B' Internationals, there is no dispute there; my point is that the team picked for the 1979 game substantially involves players who aren't anywhere near International quality(Glenn Hoddle apart). Approx 9 out of the 15 players involved never got full caps and only Hoddle, Devonshire & Sunderland(1 cap v Australia) played full internationals in the future; even taking into account the sometimes iffy nature of 'B' games, it seems a very odd team. I'm convinced it was a 'B' team but picked regionally; as to why, who knows?
That 1984 team looks far more representative of the club scene: players from Forest, Spurs Everton & Watford(all doing well domestically), and a guy like Lineker who was starting to bang them in consistently for Leicester...
